Hi @rzakhanov!

Can you give some examples of how you are making the request? The 405 errors on Meilisearch are common when there is a mismatch between meilisearch-php version (latest 0.24.0) and the Meilisearch engine on 0.27.

I found solution . Problem at /src/Endpoints/Indexes.php in 180 line:

This was get method. Example: $this->http->post i changed this to $this->http->get and this worked. Because in your documentation meilisearch updateFilterableAttributes and updateSearchableAttributes method related GET method but in php package was POST . Need fix that. But have new problem again :(

    public function rawSearch(?string $query, array $searchParams = []): array
    {
        $parameters = array_merge(
            ['q' => $query],
            $searchParams
        );

        return $this->http->get(self::PATH.'/'.$this->uid.'/search', $parameters);
    }

I'm still not getting what's going on in your case. Sorry about that.

Can you check again which version of the Meilisearch engine you are using? To do that, you can check here https://docs.meilisearch.com/reference/api/version.html#get-version-of-meilisearch

And I want to ensure you have the latest meilisearch-php version 0.24.0, can you share this file with me /src/MeiliSearch.php from your local vendor?

[rzakhanov]

I didn't find problem, but i solved it with custom native curl library in php. For example i using now such code

            return json_decode( $this->customRequest('/indexes/products/search', ['q' => $query,'filter'=> $filter],'POST'),true)['hits']?:[];

at the moment this working. But problem unfortunately it remains.. :(

[rzakhanov]

This is customRequest function source:

  public function customRequest($path = null, $params = [], $method = 'GET')
    {
        $curl = curl_init();
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_URL, MEILISEARCH_CONNECT . '/' . $path);

        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT, 0);
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 25); //timeout in seconds
        curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_CUSTOMREQUEST, strtoupper($method));

        if ($params) {
            curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HTTPHEADER, [
                "content-type: application/json; charset=UTF-8",
                "Authorization: Bearer " . MEILISEARCH_MASTER_KEY,
            ]);
            #curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,http_build_query($params));
            curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, (is_string($params) ? $params : json_encode($params)));
        }

        $res = curl_exec($curl);
        curl_close($curl);

        return $res;
    }

Yes of course man : Meilisearch source is:

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace MeiliSearch;

class MeiliSearch
{
    public const VERSION = '0.23.2';

    public static function qualifiedVersion()
    {
        return sprintf('Meilisearch PHP (v%s)', MeiliSearch::VERSION);
    }
}

[brunoocasali]

If you want to use a plain curl is up to you, but the idea of our SDKs is to help you integrate with Meili easily :)

So, I spotted some trouble in your environment.

First, you must use a version of the Meilisearch engine that is compatible with meilisearch-php. So if you have the engine version 0.27, you should stay on the version of meilisearch-php you have.

But I assume you are using the new version of Meili, so you should run composer update meilisearch/meilisearch-php to get the meilisearch-php v0.24.0, this should solve your problem.

Btw: Our docs only show the latest version of the Meilisearch engine, that's why you got these issues 😄.

I will check in next project :) Thanks for helping again ! :)

Hi @brunoocasali
I have same trouble:

Error notice: MeiliSearch\Exceptions\InvalidResponseBodyException

In

MeiliSearch\Http\Client::parseResponse
vendor/meilisearch/meilisearch-php/src/Http/Client.php:186

Laravel version: 8.*
Package version: "0.28.1"
"meilisearch/meilisearch-php": "^0.24.1",

My code version one:

$index = $client->index('movies_index_new');
$index->updateSortableAttributes(['cinemas.name']);

My code version two:

        $index = $client->index('movies_index_new');
        $index->updateSettings([
            'sortableAttributes' => [
                'cinemas.name'
            ]
        ]);

I need custom sorting and filtering. But in both code versions I have the error MeiliSearch\Exceptions\InvalidResponseBodyException

But if I use simple code it's worked fine:

return Movie::search($q)->get();

Hi @eroshenko!

Can you confirm the Meilisearch engine version you are using? Because we have tests that cover this code:
https://github.com/meilisearch/meilisearch-php/blob/main/tests/Settings/SearchableAttributesTest.php#L25-L31

So the only thing that can break that is if you use a different version :/
